Access Skills Centre Tutor - Expression of Interest

Opportunities exist for Postgraduate students to work as a tutor to undergraduate students who are registered with Mature Student Office, Disability Support Services, or UCC PLUS+ (Access & Participation services).

It is therefore an excellent opportunity for those looking to gain experience in tutoring, who are passionate about helping students, and are happy to take on additional occasional hour teaching. 

If you have any questions, we would be delighted to speak with you. Please email accessskillscentre@ucc.ie
